What on-device app does Apple charge a subscription for?


What the heck? Most internal tools were in Oregon when I worked in BT pre 2021.


The primary ticketing system was up and down apparently, so tcorp/SIM must still have critical components there.


At first I thought this was a typo, but actually I fully agree with this. If we use LLMs (in their current state) responsibly we won’t see much benefit, because the weight of that responsibility is roughly equivalent to the cost of doing the task without any assistance.


As an aside, nervo.us is way easier to type than the hyphenated domain. Just curious if you ever considered reversing the redirect?


I'm somewhat ignorant about the search ranking implications of changing our domain. I bought the nervo.us domain much later and we've had the n-e-r-v-o-u-s.com domain since 2007.


Love Nervous System design. I have quite a few pieces from them including one of their infinity puzzles. Very high quality work.


And Australian companies often list in the US.


No we don’t. Put another one in if need arises.


Best I can do is a system that gives you a random answer no matter how much time you give it.


Great! 80-20, Pareto principle, we're gonna use that! We are as good as done with the task. Everyone take phinnaeus as an example. This is how you get things done. We move quickly and break things. Remember our motto.


Break things and run away, got it.

iOS has had this feature for several versions now, I think it predates focus modes even. But today it lives under that umbrella as the Driving focus, which can activate automatically based on certain kinds of detected motion.


Humans have the most sophisticated processing unit in the known universe to handle the data from the eyes. Is the brain a crutch?


At least for one marine creature, which I forgot its name, the answer is yes. Said creature dissolves its brain the moment it can find a place to attach and call home.


Sea squirt. One of the simplest members of Chordata. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ascidiacea


Can't think of the name atm either, but I'm pretty sure it only does so, as it would be pointless to make any further decisions after attaching itself - it simply has no means to act on anything after that... the attaching is the only thing it 'does' in it's life... after that, it's only job, and only ability, is to be. Chose the wrong spot to attach and call home? Brains wouldn't make a bit of difference (unless regretting it's one life-choice is somehow usefull during this stage of just being, being stuck on the spot).
